Right. I think what I heard on the radio this morning (NPR) is that they must have been under 16 when they were brought here and can't be over 30. Can anyone corroborate that?

That is what I heard. Started over in VA where a girl graduating high school was to be deported back to Guatemal. Her mother brought her her when she was 4 and she can barely speak Spanish. Someone stepped in and granted a stay, so I guess now she has two years deferrment. Maybe she can get on with her plans to become a nurse.

Perhaps they gave Bush what he wanted because they trusted him to make the right decisions and believed the stuff about weapons of mass destruction.
Bush's biggest fault was perhaps lack of wisdom. After 911 he had a blank check (rightly so) to do whatever he had to do in order to prosecute the war against terrorism. He decided to invade Iraq and we trusted him on that. He let us down big time. Sometimes good leadership is knowing what to NOT do.
He failed on that. I know one thing he did not know what was about to hit the country in the face when he landed on the Abraham Lincoln with that Mission Accomplished sign behind him.
The crash happened on his watch Pete not Obama's. You can be upset that Obama has not been able to bring the country all the way back but it is not for lack of trying. Your suicide party friends in Congress really haven't stopped the rust in Cleveland have they? At least Obama has brought down the unemployment level there...

Saw Dr. No on the news last evening throwing the ball on Obama's plan back into Romney's lap. This ought to be fun.

Yes, Obama magically made Ohio better than other states
Cleveland is a solid Dem town even after we threw half of them in jail. Unless the GOP forced them to be as crooked as the Cuyahoga too

You mean Bush's bailout?
Since Kasich took office, there's been a 1800 increase in auto jobs, and 73,000 added overall:
http://www.politifact.com/ohio/state...uts-ohios-eco/
But as they note the bailout started in 08. If you kinda screw around it looks like the high end impact is around 5-7% of the total gained tops, not nothing but not the smoking gun for sure.
And add: "...the biggest areas of job growth are in business and financial services and medical fields." Hardly the high points of the left's plan!
